Fava beans with garlic
Print Products and services By Mayo Clinic Staff
Dietitian s tip
Choose young fava beans in pods no fatter than your little finger. This saves you from needing to blanch the shelled beans to remove the thin, tough skin.

NOTE: If you are using more mature fava beans in pods you may need to remove each bean's skin. Pinch each bean on the side opposite where it was attached to the pod. The bean should slip easily from the skin.

Add the garlic and saute for 30 seconds; don't let the garlic brown. Add the fava beans and stock and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer, shaking the pan gently from time to time, until the beans are tender, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the parsley and serve immediately.
